First, Geoff Ogilvy. Now, Lucas Glover. The Hyundai Tournament
of Champions has lost one of its marquee players for the second
straight year due to a freak aquatic accident.

Glover sprained a ligament in his right knee over the weekend
while paddleboarding in Hawaii. Glover, who won the Wells Fargo
Championship last May, had to withdraw from Thursday's pro-am and
told the Associated Press he was 50-50 at teeing it up on Friday in
the first round of the PGA TOUR’s season opener.

Glover is an experienced paddleboarder. He said his foot caught
on the board as he took a tumble and his body opted to go in a
different direction. The disconnect had heavy consequences to the
knee.

A year ago, Ogilvy, the two-time defending champion at Kapalua,
sliced his finger on a coral reef prior to the start of the
tournament. He had to withdraw and eventually missed the first
month of the season.
